Journey by open-air Jeep from Palm Springs at sunset through the California desert to experience stargazing at its best! Explore the canyons along the San Andreas Fault and watch as the
desert sunset creates amazing shadows on the mountains. You'll also enjoy stargazing through a large tracking telescope as your 'Star Navigator' guide shares the mythology of the constellations.

This sunset and stargazing Jeep adventure from Palm Springs to the San Andreas Fault
takes you on an open-air nocturnal voyage through the surreal shadows
and mystical darkness of the cooling desert landscape.

Your
journey begins before dark as you explore steep-walled canyons along the
San Andreas Fault. As the sun begins to set, grab your camera to
capture the spectacular transition from day to night as light casts
amazing shadows on the mountains, creating a depth and range of colors
unseen during the day.

While you explore the
pristine, natural palm oasis of this area, learn how and why the
Cahuilla Indians lived on the San Andreas Fault and hear fascinating
stories of the valley's pioneer settlers and gold miners. Experience the pure silence
and beauty of the desert at twilight away from the lights and noise of
the city. This is the best time to spot wildlife as this is when many
desert animals are most active.

After sunset, enjoy star- and planet-gazing under the clear desert skies with the help of a 'Sky Scout', a hand held which helps point out specific stars, and laser pointers. Your guide will act as a 'Star Navigator,' pointing out planets and stars through the 'Sky-Scout' and sharing the mythology of the constellations while you enjoy the peaceful desert atmosphere.
